best default scheme?

[Psycho Named Jerry]

what is your favorite default scheme?
mine is destruction scheme because it has no fire punches

[Jonno]

I like intermediate with Airstrike turned off.

So many possibilities...

Schemes with limited mobility.

It's pretty boring if you have tons of ropes and jetpacks.

Agreed.

[Psycho Named Jerry]

mainly the jetpacks, ninja rope is fairly limited

Intermediate would be a cool and serious scheme with a couple of tweaks.

Why does Intermediate have 100 Jetpack fuel, no girder radius restriction, 5 rope swings? I think there's no reason to have different settings for these than in the Pro scheme. New players can practice with the Beginner scheme. Intermediate can be as competitive/serious as the Pro scheme (just with 8 worms per player in 1vs1, random worm placements, 45s turn time, best of 3 matches). Craft crates and OP weapons should be also disabled like in the Pro scheme.

Girder radius restriction really should be turned on in most schemes. Being able to place a girder anywhere is kinda dumb.

[Euphytose]

All default schemes are terrible in my opinion. No offense but they're either for the new players, or they're competitive and thus not fun at all. I'm all for removing the most RNG possible, but in Worms it's not fun without crates. It's the most fair though, so that's indeed what should be used in competitive.

Edit: And yes, girder radius restrict makes no sense when it's off, it's the cheesiest tactic to block someone from across the map every single turn, especially considering how cheap to craft girders are. I just wish we had a visual indicator for the range instead of guestimating.

Yeee, I find a lot of the schemes are little far-fetched for my taste, but if I were to go with one, it'd probably have to be the Intermediate scheme.

I don't mind when people girder block me from across the map, as fire punch is usually infinite. People just waste their girders doing that AND help protect me at the same time.. To me, it simply makes sense that players can only place girders within a certain radius from the active worm.

Crate drops? Meh. I find they add too much luck to schemes. They're okay if you're just playing a funner and not being serious, but crate drops in any scheme that is supposed to be 'serious' are kind of a joke due to the randomness of spawns and contents.

Once Team17 releases the new update that allows us full access to all of the weapons in the game, hopefully then we can have some more interesting and balanced schemes... although to be REALLY good we still need an infusion of items from past games. There's too much offense in WMD and not enough defense.

Problem is skunk in WMD they will proberly do that to play the drone crates game, ive seen a few players do it to a lot of success.could technically keep blocking you over and over again with girder while they get crates and craft
